About

How I Travel launched in late 2015 as a spinoff of our parent, the flights concierge service Yore Oyster. It began with a single goal in mind: to broaden the scope of travel content on the web. We saw a gap for a particular type of content – namely in-depth pieces about individual travelers, not destinations or experiences – and have built our entire site around that thinking to date.

The most frequently-searched posts on our site, though, are all about Amazon. Every traveler wants to know: how can I get Amazon items shipped to me when I’m abroad? We’ve got the best guide on the web for just that, which shows you exactly how to get whatever you want shipped to your doorstep, regardless of how remote you are. We call our process Hacking Amazon Abroad, and travelers the world over are raving about it.

In case that’s not enough, we’ve recently introduced travel-specific product reviews to help you make smart purchase decisions along your journey. We spend dozens of hours and thousands of dollars testing this stuff so by the end of it we can tell you exactly what to buy. See how I saved over $1,000 in 8 months just by switching to an online European bank, or the results of our recent quest to find the best travel neck pillow.

So take a look around and see what you think! If you want to reach us for whatever reason, say hello at go@yoreoyster.com. Happy travels!
